I think Borate is a good choice - maybe a little higher.
Yeah, I was following PoolDocs writeup on increasing to 50ppm, I got only 5 boxes of borax last time, I am planning to add 5 more, thats the reason my pH was a little off too.
I did reduce the pH to 7.4 in the last two days.
I also got the polyquat 60 from amazon. And planning to add and see if it makes any difference. and may be get some trichlor powder and sprinkle directly on top of the black spots and brush if I can.
